Uniswap Announces Acquisition Of Genie



Uniswap, the decentralized exchange (DEX), has announced the acquisition of the nonfungible token (NFT) marketplace aggregator Genie on Tuesday. Uniswap said this move is part of its mission to unlock universal ownership and exchange on its platform.


It has been reported that Uniswap is now integrating NFTs into its product line, beginning with the Uniswap web application, and later integrations are said to include developer APIs and widgets. This isn’t the first time Uniswap has worked with NFTs. In the spring of 2019, it launched Unisocks, which offered NFT liquidity pools backed by real-world assets.


Uniswap said:

“We’re excited to bring what we’ve learned building DeFi products to NFTs.”

However, in August, Uniswap said it planned to airdrop USD Coin (USDC) to historical Genie users in an effort to share the value of this acquisition and integration.


The report said that Uniswap launched the first instance of NFT liquidity pools, called Unisocks, in the spring of 2019. They also view NFTs as “an important gateway to web3” rather than “a separate ecosystem from ERC20s.”

Likewise, Genie is known as the first NFT marketplace aggregator providing a means to discover, buy and sell NFTs across various marketplaces. The company allows users to “batch buy NFTs across all major marketplaces in a single transaction and save up to 40% on gas fees.”


Some metaverse-related endeavors and companies continue to make progress despite recent market instability. GameFi and game-related NFTs, for instance, have shown signs of forwarding movement and growth recently.


Thus, new and experimental NFT approaches have still been released, showing positive sentiment for NFT, GameFi, and Metaverse aspects of the crypto and Web3 industries.
